If you have diabetes and use these monitors please stop using them. Abbott Labs said they fixed the problem but older monitors shouldn’t be used.
Incorrect readings can cause people to improperly treat their condition, with potentially dire consequences.
At least 7 deaths and hundreds of injuries linked to faulty glucose monitors, FDA says
The problems have been reported with roughly 3 million FreeStyle Libre 3 and FreeStyle Libre 3 Plus sensors.

Please don’t forget today is World AIDS Day. At a time our government wants it to be ignored it’s even more important to remember. I knew people who died and I know someone I grew up with who is living with it now and has been for a long time. Treatment is important both here and in other countries.

Hi.
Are you alone tonight?
I'll call you I have grace to spare and I am angry at the local religions for not making a number available in case someone needed something.
How can I help you? My DM remains open.

Not had any purchases yet, hoping for one today! Good selection of textures here made from a range of objects I've photocopied. Could be used for a game, comic, RPG book, album cover, video overlay, etc. The sky is the limit.

Creating a military conflict with Venezuela gives this administration a legal "hook" to invoke the Alien Enemies Act. In other words, the foreign war is being manufactured in order to facilitate court deference for its domestic mass deportation policy. It's a Stephen Miller Special.

Searching Amazon has given a list of things to get *into* the car, but that's not my issue -- just need to close the driver-side door
